Don,
Did you make it up to Santa Barbara? We motored up Mon. morning and arrived around 12:30pm. Dropped hook in 25', Made sure the boat was settled in and then went ashore to fly kites. The next morning I found a little stowaway in the dinghy, We let him stay until 11:00 then he had to go. Went to the wharf for icecream and flew kites on the sandspit then back to the boat for dinner and fireworks. Weighed anchor on Thurs. at 10:00 and had a great sail back, We averaged 5.5kts on a running reach until we got to Ventura then we jibed onto a reach and took off like a bat outa hell 8-10kts (surfing) for the last 3 mi. The new Autohelm worked like a champ the whole trip.
Here are some pics
